Abstract

Disclosed are an image forming apparatus of improved power transmission structure and a developing cartridge thereof. The image forming apparatus may include a main body; a driving unit which includes a driving shaft mounted to the main body and a driving coupler connected to the driving shaft. The driving coupler may be provided with a plurality of driving tips. The image forming apparatus may further include a consumable unit that may be detachably received in the main body. The consumable unit may include a driven shaft, a rotating body rotating with the driven shaft and a passive coupler rotating with the driven shaft. The passive coupler may be provided with a plurality of passive tips. The plurality of driving tips and the plurality of passive tips may come into engaging contact with each other when the consumable unit is operably received in the main body, and may remain in the engaging contact even when the respective rotational axes of the driving shaft and the driven shaft intersect with each other.

Description

CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION[0001]This application claims priority from Korean Patent Application No. 10-2009-0047849, filed on May 29, 2009 in the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.TECHNICAL FIELD[0002]The present disclosure relates generally to an image forming apparatus and a developing cartridge thereof, and, more particularly, to an image forming apparatus having an improved power transmission structure and a developing cartridge thereof.BACKGROUND OF RELATED ART[0003]An image forming apparatus, which forms an image on a print medium, may be classified broadly into an electrophotographic type, in which a series of charging-light exposure-developing with developer-transferring-fusing-cleaning processes are performed to form an image on a print medium; an inkjet type where small ink droplets are selectively ejected from nozzles onto a print medium to form an image; and a thermal transfer type where a thermal...
